It’s well known that the *omney family of phonies has no members that have put on the uniform for generations. It is not only troubling, it is outright bizarre. How is it they managed to do it and keep doing it ? Even “the family” declared that it was the EQUIVALENT of military service for the sons working on his campaign. Really.
Mind you, a prerequisite of military service is not an absolute imperative for me (though it is a plus) for a President, just that it was always highly troubling how that family has managed to dodge service for generations (and his strapping young sons aren’t exactly impaired health-wise).
Even though I'm a veteran, I advised my strapping young son (at the time) not to join the military. With the draft, my options were limited and I chose to join, but he had more going for him than the military could provide. If I read about Romney's sons shooting up a theatre or being busted for this, that or another I might say they would have benefitted from service. I take pride in my son's life and I'm sure Mitt does the same.
